Each January, the quiet Alpine town of Davos, Switzerland transforms into a global hub as world leaders, CEOs, and innovators gather for the World Economic Forum (WEF). With thousands of delegates and VIP guests arriving from around the world, the roads between Zurich and Davos quickly become some of the busiest in the country. If you’re planning to attend WEF 2026, booking your transfer early is not just recommended — it’s absolutely essential.

Why Early Booking Matters for WEF Davos 2026

The World Economic Forum is unlike any other event in Switzerland. During the week of January 19–23, 2026, demand for premium chauffeur and transfer services skyrockets. Every top-tier chauffeur company receives requests from government delegations, corporate groups, and high-profile individuals — often months in advance.

By securing your Davos transfer early, you ensure:

Guaranteed Availability: Avoid last-minute stress and get the exact vehicle class you prefer — from an executive Mercedes E-Class to a luxurious Mercedes S-Class or V-Class van.
Priority Service: Early bookings receive scheduling preference, ideal for coordinating multiple meetings, hotel arrivals, or private events.
Tailored Experience: You’ll have time to request extras like child seats, convoy coordination, or a multilingual chauffeur for your delegation.

When Should You Book?

For standard transfers between Zurich Airport (ZRH) and Davos, booking 4–8 weeks in advance is ideal.
However, for WEF week (January 19–23, 2026) — when access is limited and permits are mandatory — we strongly recommend booking before mid-December 2025.

At Express Transfer GmbH, we operate with official WEF vehicle permits, allowing our chauffeurs to access restricted security zones directly in Davos — something most standard transfer providers cannot offer. Early booking guarantees that your authorized vehicle is registered and ready when you arrive.

Early Booking = Peace of Mind in Winter Conditions

The journey from Zurich to Davos takes around 2.5 hours, winding through picturesque but often snow-covered mountain roads. By booking early, our logistics team can plan the safest and most efficient route, monitor weather updates, and assign 4×4 vehicles with winter tires and AIRMATIC suspension for maximum comfort.

Whether you’re arriving via Zurich Airport, Zurich GAT (Private Jet Terminal), or St. Gallen Altenrhein, your chauffeur will track your flight, meet you at arrivals, assist with luggage, and ensure a seamless transfer to your hotel or chalet in Davos.
